Product Information

Full details

This SmallRig ND Filter Kit is designed for DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro and Action 4 cameras, offering enhanced control over light for videographers and photographers. Its key benefit is maintaining accurate colors and reducing unwanted reflections through full-spectrum technology and a CPL filter. A potential caveat is the need for careful handling due to the specialized glass and coatings. The kit provides essential ND filters (ND8, ND16, ND32) for varying light conditions and a CPL filter to manage glare, all constructed with durable high-alumina glass and a convenient snap-on design.

FAQs

What is the purpose of ND filters?

ND (Neutral Density) filters reduce the amount of light entering the camera lens. This allows you to use slower shutter speeds in bright conditions for creative effects like motion blur, or to shoot with wider apertures for shallower depth of field without overexposing the image.

What is a CPL filter and what does it do?

A CPL (Circular Polarizer) filter helps to reduce reflections from non-metallic surfaces such as water, glass, and foliage. It can also deepen blue skies and increase color saturation, improving the overall image quality.

How do I clean the filters?

Use a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth. For tougher smudges, apply a small amount of lens cleaning solution to the cloth, never directly to the filter. Wipe gently.

Are these filters compatible with other action cameras?

No, this specific kit is designed and optimized for the DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro and DJI Osmo Action 4 cameras only.

What are the different ND levels included and when should I use them?

The kit includes ND8 (for bright daylight), ND16 (for moderate light), and ND32 (for strong light or long exposures). The CPL filter is used to reduce reflections and enhance colors.

How does the snap-on design work?

The filters are designed to fit directly over the camera's existing lens and attach with a secure snap mechanism, allowing for quick changes without needing to remove the original lens.

Does the full-spectrum technology affect battery life?

No, the full-spectrum technology is an optical property of the glass and coatings and does not impact the camera's battery life.

Troubleshooting

Filter does not snap on securely

Ensure the camera lens and the filter's mounting edge are clean and free of debris. Verify that you are using the correct filter for your specific DJI Osmo Action model.

Color cast observed in footage

Confirm that the filter is correctly installed. The full-spectrum technology should minimize color cast; if present, check if the filter is clean or if there's an issue with the camera's white balance settings.

Smudges or streaks on the filter

Gently clean the filter with a clean microfiber cloth. For persistent marks, use a lens cleaning solution applied to the cloth and wipe carefully.

Reduced image clarity or sharpness

Ensure the filter glass is clean and free from dust or fingerprints. Check for any damage to the filter that might be affecting image quality.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Maintains accurate color reproduction across different light levels.
  • Durable construction provides resistance to physical damage and environmental factors.
  • Easy to attach and detach due to the snap-on design.
  • Reduces unwanted reflections and glare with the CPL filter.
  • Includes a protective cover for the lens.

Cons

  • Requires careful cleaning to maintain coating integrity.
  • May add slight bulk to the camera setup.
  • Not compatible with cameras other than the specified DJI Osmo Action models.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

This filter kit is specifically designed for the DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro and DJI Osmo Action 4 cameras.

Setup:

  1. Align the filter with the front of your camera lens.
  2. Gently press the filter onto the lens until it securely snaps into place.
  3. To remove, carefully pull the filter away from the lens.

Care:

  • Clean the filters using a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth. For stubborn smudges, a lens cleaning solution can be applied *sparingly* to the cloth, not directly to the lens.
  • Avoid using abrasive materials or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the coatings.
  • Store the filters in the provided silicone lens cover or a dedicated filter case when not in use to protect them from dust and scratches.
  • Handle filters by the edges to avoid transferring oils from your fingertips onto the glass surface.
